Maximum wind speeds for club boats

General hire for fun/racing – If the wind is regularly over 21 knots(top of force 5) boats should not be taken on the water, and if force 7 gusts are included in the forecast.

Any breakages due to abuse of this rule will be at the users expense. The above may be modified for programmed racing – for a specific racing event by a qualified Instructor who is familiar with the sailor’s ability, and at the race officer’s discretion, taking into account both safety and possibility of boat damage. Plus for RYA training – for specific RYA training activities by a Senior Instructor (for example- reefed Pico or Argo).
